Washing in hard water - new experience and I'm doing something wrong - everything's grey...

Are you using the washing powder that you used in your old house? I understood that the manufacturers had different detergents for different water areas, but it might be a fallacy.

the packets usually tell you how much powder to use in hard/soft water areas, I'd check that out if I were you. Other than that, be a nosey neighbour, find out who has lovely new looking whites and ask them what they use
